    The humans found out about the vampire+werewolves coz alexander is dead so there's no 1 cleaning up for them.

      @deusdeaconReviews  6 років тому +22

      are you sure about that ? cause in the sequel blood wars the vampires and lycans seem to be doing pretty good for themselves with no one stopping them, almost like the vampires and werewolves being discovered aspect of this movie didn't really happen, So I wouldn't really bother trying to fit this film into the canon, the filmmakers aren't.

      @@deusdeaconReviews that's true. Which begs the question if Alexander was alive this whole time until his death in evolution, then where was he in the prequal rise of the lycans. Was he not cleaning their messes then or did it only matter for the plot in the second film🤔

    If you researched real cryogenics they do actually put people in the tanks upside down. That way if for some reason power goes out, liquid nitrogen shipments cease, and the body starts to thaw the liquid nitrogen at the bottom of the canister takes longer to evaporate making the head salvageable even if the rest of the body is not.

    • @deusdeaconReviews
      @deusdeaconReviews  6 років тому +13

      right so the fact that selene is clearly not submerged in liquid nitrogen makes the storing upside down pointless from technical level as well.

      Not necessarily. We don't know what she's stored in but we do know that upside down is the real world way of storing frozen bodies. I was going to make a comment about the glass making the whole freezing thing rather impossible but future science is a magical thing and how dare we judge them

    That lycan in the brown jacket I'm almost certain played Dyson, a werewolf in Lost Girl, and his character dressed in almost the exact same way.

    23:20 I think the doctor statement makes sense with his character. If you just assume that he is the Victor of lycans, and see vampires the same way Victor saw lycans. But that's the problem. Assume. Not explained, or better yet, shown.
    The thing it's that the ending to Evolution let them free to go any direcction they wanted, being this a good premise, but they introduced the changes in their world as backstory, instead of showing us how everything got this way in the film.

      Hew Man Lawnmower Man 2 is ironically entertaining, PA: TGD is just frustrating and asinine. The few compliments I can give to the latter movie (eg. some, the keyword being _some_ of the CGI effects look cool, especially for a low budget movie), but they’re not enough to salvage it. The film has so many continuity errors that it makes me dumber just thinking about them. There’s also tons of moments that can be summed up with the MST3K quote “They just didn’t care.” Though I admit, this is one of the few films where I enjoy talking about why I hate the film rather than being to spiteful to make a conversation about it fun.

      It doesn't really make sense at all... vampirism and lycanthropy are essentially cures for death, old age and all human illnesses... if we could unlock the secret to a pure Corvinus strain, as in what Alexander Corvinus was(he didn't need to feed on blood to live, was just an immortal man with superhuman stats), then humanity would pretty much ascend to transhumanism overnight. So wiping out the vampires and lycans would be the absolute last thing anyone with a brain would even consider doing.

    Uh, dude, you do realize that atleast with Selene killing the soliders, normally something like that would be considered Self Defense. They are trying to kill her and the fact they are coming at her with assault rifles makes that obvious.
    Yeah it's not perfect, but remember the police officers were just normal guys doing their jobs and thus Selene had no reason to seriously injure them. The soldiers meanwhile are guys who are intentionally coming after her and want to kill her. Simply being human doesn't change that.

    • @deusdeaconReviews

      Killing maybe, breaking in half and impaling with said rifle is excessive, the guy she bent in half was incapacitated for example, its not that she kills the bad guys its that she brutalises them, something she didn't even do to that degree to lycans the ones who she thought killed her family even the real killer of her family victor received a swift death.

    This whole movie felt really rushed and pretty much threw a way some of the nuances and complexities involved with the whole vampire/werewolf war. I liked some of the ideas like the hybrid blood having special properties and the idea of Selena and Michael having a child, but the execution left alot to be desired. It overall felt mostly forgettable compared to previous movies. The whole time skip where humanity is now involved in the conflict kind of annoyed me because that whole aspect pretty much gets ignored and unneccessary later on when the lycans get involved. It felt kind of pointless. The lycans infiltrating into human society also didn't make much sense to me. If anything that is something the vampires would do considering past movies established lycans being more feral and wanting to live in peace.

    It never made sense to my why the vampires were almost instinct. I get the lycans have a track record of being able to beat them in a fight, but follow this beat:
    Both vampires and lycans can add to their numbers with a single bite with a 100% success rate, as long as they are not of the opposite race (not counting those of the Corneus lineage).
    I can understand Lycans not wanting to increase their numbers rapidly in the first film. Lucian's mission was to broker peace, which would be harder to do if he couldn't keep a reign of everyone. Makes perfect sense!
    The vampires, though? They've stated several times that their numbers are dwindling. That they're an endangered species, basically. So why don't they go on a "campaign drive" of sorts and convert as many as they can!
    I know some are bound to bring up their food source like in the Daybreakers movie, but unlike in that movie, the vampires were able to develop synthetic human blood since the first movie, so what's the point of them holding back?!
    The vampires clearly have the financial resources to funnel into R&D to make it airborne if they wanted to.
    That's why it would make way more sense to have it where they began infecting the world to turn everyone into vampires, and the lycans escalated in kind.
    That way you now have a very public world war where humanity is now threatened with extinction and Celine is the one trying to save them and broker a peace treaty, continuing Lucian's mission.
    Now that would have been an awesome Underworld sequel!

    This movie was even more pointless than "Rise of the Lycans." Further, if they'd just had it be in the same setting but used different characters, it might have worked as a spin-off series. A crappy spin-off series, of course, but still worked. But when you completely change the character of the protagonist and try to have it be a continuation of the previous films, it completely falls apart and becomes downright offensive. I'm not a big fan of Underworld, but as a writer, I find this kind of thing infuriating. When you don't respect or understand the source material, you're a hack storyteller, PERIOD.

      PS. Reacting to CGI is not inherently bad, or automatically unconvincing. Look at what Disney did with the live action Jungle Book. That's probably the most realistic and layered CGI to date in a film, and the only thing real in the entire film was the kid playing Mowgli.

    The funny thing is that making the werewolves be the people who infiltrate society is pretty stupid anyway, so they got it doubly wrong making them the bad guys doing that. The werewolves have always been shown as being more feral, and forced to live on the fringes, while the vampires live in mansions. So we are supposed to believe that Lucian died, and that encouraged them to all stop behaving like animals, get high paying jobs/run for office, and start this plot.
    It would have made much more sense to keep up with the vampire bad guys thing and have her help the werewolves who are being victimised by the vampire, with some vampires also helping them as they don't agree with it.
    If they wanted to ignore all 3 previous films so much, why even bother with 12 years later and having the start of the film, just make it obvious it's a complete reset and in a different world to the last 3 films.

    Yeah there is one other point I would like to bring up, where the fuck does this movie take place because the first one took place in Hungary, but everybody in this movie seems to be American, and there’s no way in hell America would ever be a part of something like this whether it’s the Uber nationalists of the right not wanting a foreign power dictating what America does or the left not wanting to be a part of Imperium of man level genocide, not only that wouldn’t governments want to have super powered individuals on their side I mean this could’ve been an awesome story of like an arms race involving vampires and werewolves, Think about it the United States learns of the history of werewolves and seeing its own history reflected in them offers them amnesty Russia not wanting the US to have such an advantage does the same for vampires, you could still have your vampire-werewolf war and still have the werewolves be the good guy but not based on speciesism but on ideology, making a cold war inspired spy thriller.

    I just figured her change came from the fact humans were now killing them all. So in the previous, she didn't kill them because she had no reason to. They didn't know they existed and they didn't feed on humans. Killing willy nilly would have threatened that.
    Edit: She said no one survives being bitten by both. That guy one can assume wasn't bitten but was born a vampire.

    You state around the 11:25 mark that this is the first film to use the word "fuck" but that just isn't true. Michael uses it in the very first film right before he's captured by the lycans pretending to be police. In fact, I even went back to your review of the very first movie of the series, and you show that.

      Definitely.

The first three movies in this series are really good in my opinion, but the last two (this movie, in particular) was so damned forgettable, that I had forgotten that I'd even seen it until about half way through your review of it.

      have to disagree there, the vampires were very much the bad guys, the idividual vampires like selene may not have been aware of it, but the ideolgy of the leading vampires was at first enslavement and then genocide when enslavement failed.

    Waaaaay late on this but I still feel the need to say it,and while this is a nitpick. Your attachment to Lucian is unhealthy. THIS film is FAR into the future where more than likely Lucian isn't even a name that's remembered. Times change as do people so the lycans becoming evil bastard who infiltrate governments (which actually makes sense since a comparison of the sith doing it in star wars it shows that over time they grew smarter and stopped being savages and realized a higher plain for them to actually dish some real damage to the vampires with. This movie is shit but saying the lycans will stay the same throughout is rather dumb. And yes I saw your blood wars review and loved it I've been subbed to you for a while and binge watched your vids huge fan but the underworld reviews have been the ones I played the most attention too. And this one in particular I can't pass on. Again huge fan love the videos just had to say my two cents.

      Thats one hell of stretch I have to say, and doesn't ring true for me considering firstly how victor is never mentioned, and also according selene at the start of the film it was lycans who killed her family, this film doesn't seem to give continuity a high priority.
